Getting some Edward Hopper vibes from this one.

Hard to paint people doing boring things without evoking hopper. But you're definitely right lol

Perfect. That's the goal! Funny enough my reference for this painting was taken at night

For anyone wondering, the painting is 22"x16 (half sheet). The image is of Pretty Ricky's! I stopped in there after some ramen and thought it would make a nice painting.
For my watercolor nerds: Paper is saunders waterford 140lb rough, paints are daniel smith and winsor and newton.

Incredible

I felt the same thing. The space feeling real but emptier and a little liminal give it that Hopper vibe. You're best yet, great job!

Art nerdery aside, let's get to the important questions. Where'd you get ramen?
Painting is dope though.
Chav t1_je0o04h wrote
At first I just read this as just, "this painting was taken at night" and it still made sense.
onewordpoet OP t1_je0od3t wrote
Izakaya right next door. It was OK. Okiboru is also close and a billion times better.
FrankiePoops t1_je0omgb wrote
Ah okay. Haven't tried either spot!

I love this one.
Makes me really wish they didn't change the south street seaport bench/steps thing by pier 17 cause that setting would've made a gorgeous painting in this style.

Anything for sale?
cC2Panda t1_je20oe5 wrote
I mostly hung out at The Johnsons, 151, and St. Jeromes but I spent my fair share of nights at Spitzer's if I was feeling fancy.

As an abstract watercolor painter, I wish I had your ability. Damn that is great

Amazing! Really captures the moment.
Saint_Eve t1_je3bt0p wrote
This is so beautiful. How did you learn how to do this? This type of painting is amazing.
onewordpoet OP t1_je3dfim wrote
I can definitely answer specifics. But lots of practice, lots of drawing, and lots of plein air painting. Painting from life is probably the most helpful. I also have a degree in illustration so that definitely has helped in terms of crafting a visual narrative.

LaxHnl t1_je3tvzs wrote
Thank you, will do! If I’m able to get anything, I’d like to let you know I’ll be adopting a snobbish Trans-Atlantic accent, referring to myself as a “Patron of the Arts,” and pretending I’m from an old money UES family. 😂

If you keep the painting low where most of the bar is cut off, it looks like the person on the left is.playing a piano.

Damn that's cool that they let you sit there and paint! How long were you there and it must he tough capturing the people talking because they are constantly moving. Wow, years of practice all right here, this is so cool. I wanna learn how to do this and paint my surroundings
onewordpoet OP t1_je4ziwa wrote
I love the praise but I'm gonna be real I took a picture and painted it at home lmao
I do plein air paint though! A bit hard to do that inside a bar with drunk elbows everywhere
namedafteracartoon2 t1_je4zstm wrote
Makes sense, I've got plenty of pics I've taken over the many years I could do. What's plain air paint?
zsreport t1_je9guga wrote
Definitely!
